DATA SHEET • SKY73208-11: MIXER WITH PLL AND VCO
The R_DIV register stores the value of the 11-bit R-divider that
produces the desired comparison frequency (FCOMP) for the RF PLL
according to the following equation:
R

FREF
FCOMP
(3)
Where FREF is the reference frequency provided to the device.
The N_DIV1 and N_DIV2 registers store the value of the N-divider
according to the following equation:
N

FVCO
FREF
R
(4)
Bits[1:0] of the N_DIV2 register are the most significant bits
(MSBs) of the 18-bit representation of the N number.
Bits[15:0] of the N_DIV1 register are the LSBs of the 18-bit binary
representation of the N number.
The calculated R-divider and N-divider values are programmed
into the SKY73208-11 using the SPI interface.
Additional programming information is provided in the document,
Skyworks Wideband, Integer-N Phase-Locked Loop Programming
Guide, document number 201322.
Example:
A desired RF output frequency of 1800 MHz is required using a
reference frequency of 76.8 MHz and a desired frequency step
size of 400 kHz. If the VCO divider is equal to 2, the VCO
frequency is 3600 MHz from Equation 1 and the comparison
frequency is equal to 800 kHz from Equation 2.
From Equations 3 and 4, the R and N values become:
R = 96 = 1100000b
N = 4500 = 1000110010100b
These values would be programmed through the SPI interface.
Figure 5 represents the bits of the R_DIV register with the value of
R = 96. Figures 6 and 7 represent the bits of the N_DIV1 and
N_DIV2 registers, respectively, with the value of N = 4500.
